Transcription

Background

In the Muppets version, Kermit begins by lamenting his green coloration, expressing that green "blends in with so many ordinary things" and wishing to be some other color. But by the end of the song, Kermit recalls positive associations with the color green, and concludes by accepting and embracing his greenness.

Versions

Memorial

The song was sung by Big Bird (Caroll Spinney) at the two memorial services for Jim Henson in 1990.

In politics

UK Prime Minister Boris Johnson used the song as an example for his environmental policy, saying that Kermit was wrong and it is easy to be green.[5]
